I'm not familiar with it as a phrase. However, maybe it's just about delenda est? Cause that bit has quite a history, going back to a famous Roman senator who wanted Carthage to be destroyed. Many politicians and others after him have used similar phrases. So perhaps your author was doing the same.

Thanks! Both for the compliment and the explanation. It saves me the moral dilemma whether to explain my own joke 😅
